CRYSTAL STRUCTURES OF HIV-1 REVERSE TRANSCRIPTASE COMPLEXES WITH THIOCARBAMATE NON-NUCLEOSIDE INHIBITORS
|
OverviewOverview
O-Phthalimidoethyl-N-arylthiocarbamates (TCs) have been recently, identified as a new class of potent HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT), non-nucleoside inhibitors (NNRTIs), by means of computer-aided drug design, techniques [Ranise A. Spallarossa, S. Cesarini, F. Bondavalli, S., Schenone, O. Bruno, G. Menozzi, P. Fossa, L. Mosti, M. La Colla, et al., Structure-based design, parallel synthesis, structure-activity, relationship, and molecular modeling studies of thiocarbamates, new potent, non-nucleoside HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitor isosteres of, phenethylthiazolylthiourea derivatives, J. Med. Chem. 48 (2005), 3858-3873]. To elucidate the atomic details of RT/TC interaction and, validate an earlier TC docking model, the structures of three RT/TC, complexes were determined at 2.8-3.0A resolution by X-ray crystallography., The conformations adopted by the enzyme-bound TCs were analyzed and, compared with those of bioisosterically related NNRTIs.
